ROYALLY ANNOYED
Geez. The two strips of gray areas by the sides are beginning to really bug me. All sorts of alarms are going off in my engineer head.
INEFFICIENT. USE. OF. SPACE. MUST. SHUT. DOWN. AND. DIE.
I think I've had too much blogging today. Am beginning to feel the twinges of blogging overdose. (e.g. feel like smashing computer screen with large ugly stick). I can't get my aboutme page to work. I feel like sobbing, throwing hands in air and screaming, like Halle Berry in Monster's Ball. But would probably not sit well with colleagues. Don't want to be labeled: "The Intern Who Cries Randomly At Work" in perpetuity. Would not be good.
If I had one of those emoticon thingies, where you can specify how you're feeling today. Mine would say, "I'm feeling SULKY" with a sulky face right next to it. But I don't, so you'll have to settle for the comment in quotes.
Anyway incidentally, I'm working in an engineering firm. As an intern. For an amazingly incredibly princely sum of RM500 a month. Oh oh. Forgive me, am I being ungrateful? I spent FIVE YEARS in university so that I can be paid RM500 dollars every month? Barely enough to cover my parking charges, let alone maintain my incredibly expensive SUSHI obsession?
But on the other side. This is a rather temporary situation, and it was really nice of the people here to put me up for a couple of months, knowing I'll be off to study some more. So I really should go off like some ungrateful brat. I'm not. I just vent. I like venting.
Anyway, it's not like I'm revamping the whole business.
Look at what I did today for example. Hmmmm... Would make for interesting job interview question:
STODGY INTERVIEWER: So. What did you gain from your intern experience?
ME: (awkwardly) Well. Em. I created a website.
STODGY INTERVIEWER: (feigning interest) For your company?
ME: ( very awkwardly) Well. Sort of. Actually no.
STODGY INTERVIEWER: (surprise and disbelief) And, so what is it about.
ME: Well. Nothing.
STODGY INTERVIEWER: Nothing?
ME: Yes, erh. Nothing. But I've got pictures on it. And a tag board.
(interview ends)

Yeah...well go easy on designing. It's all about content anyway. Besides, good designs weren't built in a day...unless it was some peopke I know...but that's beside the point. Yeah...go easy on designing...:)
Actually pages are easier to read and a lot of time generally look better if they're not crammed up against the side of your monitor. Yep you do have a reader, came here through PPS. I'm sure I'm not the only one!
An intern eh? Yeah, had those same experiences too, but fortunately had a great supervisor who became my guardian angel..
nice start for your blog, keep at it man... :)
